JUNIPER PUBLISHERS-OPEN ACCESS JOURNAL OF DENTISTRY & ORAL HEALTH Dental Operating Microscope: The Third Dimension in Dentistry Authored by Vineet RV Abstract The field of dentistry has seen an explosion of scientific developments over the last 30 years in the fundamental concepts, technologies, instruments and materials. These developments have improved the precision and predictability of dental treatment procedures. The most important revolution has been the introduction of the dental operating microscope. The tremendous visual acuity offered by the operating microscope revolutionized the discipline of endodontics. Dr. Gary Carr is considered as the pioneer of microscopic endodontics. The use of operating microscope has transformed the traditional blindfolded “tactile-based” endodontics to highly predictable “vision-based” endodontics. Human eye has an inherent ability to resolve or distinguish two separate entities that are at least 0.2mm, apart. Dental operatin

Inferior Alveolar Nerve Skeletization with Simultaneous Implants Placement- Buccal Cortical Plate Reposition Technique – Juniper Publishers

JUNIPER PUBLISHERS-OPEN ACCESS JOURNAL OF DENTISTRY & ORAL HEALTH Inferior Alveolar Nerve Skeletization with Simultaneous Implants Placement- Buccal Cortical Plate Reposition Technique Authored by Eduardo Azoubel Abstract Implant-supported prosthetic rehabilitation of atrophic posterior mandibular alveolar ridge is a real challenge for Implant Dentistry. The physiological inferior alveolar bone resorption after tooth loss associated with the presence of the inferior alveolar nerve limiting the available remaining bone for implant placement has led to the development of several techniques and materials to assist in the success of mandibular dental rehabilitation. The objective of this paper is to present through a case report a variation of skeletization/repositioning of the Inferior Alveolar Nerve (IAN) which promotes bone regeneration and early neurosensory function. Also, it will discuss aspects of diagnosis, planning and technical execution to allow this tech
